Well it Torreira without a shadow of doubt.

They could’ve picked literally any other two players for that



Right!

Sokratis, Auba, f**k Bellerin has probably been better than Iwobi. :dizzy:

He can't explode past anyone either, the game midweek springs to mind.

He's got a weird set of attributes which doesn't lend himself to being a top attacking player.

Really poor in the time I saw him tbh. First touch like lukaku, seemed second best to every ball and his start of the season penetration was off.

He looks like he's dropped his confidence again which is frustrating as hes being given a lot of trust to play.

Needs to fix up. We can't have both him and mkhi in an absolute funk...

The boy has had his 2 to 3 good games in season. Don't expect any other good thing from him.


........ 1 - nil to The Arsenal

Now this is why I was saying ........ "I'm going to wait before I make a final judgement" when he had about 4 good games and people were doing the "I told you so's".

Tbh I already knew the answer but I thought I'd give him the chance, however, it is what it is, average player.

Such a shame how he's turning out, he was showing a lot of potential. He has excellent ball control, he is a solid dribbler and can sometimes put in good passes and create chances. However, in terms of footballing intelligence he's very poor and he gets found out quickly so most of the time he can't put his qualities to good use.

huge inconsistency issues atm which youd have hoped to be somewhat ironed out at 22

still, emery is the perfect manager to develop him atm
